Re: Back to blame: the Bawa-Garba case and the patient safety agenda
Thank you for bring this unfortunate and sad incident to our attention and presenting an unbiased view.
I am disappointed by the fact that this 'trainee' doctor has been targeted. Disappointed that the system and society (is this the justice that is being delivered by fellow human beings?) has made decisions that in my view are unfair to this doctor, especially as it has been suggested that the unfortunate death of the patient was multifactorial.
I am equally disappointed regarding GMC's stance on this issue. GMC need to protect both patients and doctors, and in particular, treat all doctors, with fairness.
